Note: CBQ = Children’s Behavior Questionnaire (Putnam & Rothbart, 2006); RRSM = Regulation-Related Skills Measure (McCoy et al., 2017); HTKS = Head-Toes-Knees-Shoulders (Ponitz et al., 2009); DCCS = Dimensional Change Card Sort (Zelazo, 2006). All models used OLS regression models except for the model predicting attention shifting (DCCS), which used logistic regression.
